Movie night this week was our next film in the Universal monster movie list.
A man is tasked with reuniting the mummy with his girlfriend who is on display at a museum. A professor makes some tea, and the mummy appears out of nowhere. I might have missed that part, but I'm not sure why the mummy just came out of the trees when the professor made the tea.
An Egyptian woman who doesn't like Egypt is under a spell and shows up at the crime scene, only to pass out and then get a white streak in her hair. Apparently, the ghost of the girlfriend has come to roost in this woman's body.
The mummy heads to the museum to collect his woman, but the wrappings are empty. That's when they come up with the brilliant idea to follow the light and grab the fainting woman. They take her to a weird building where the dumbest people alive try to save her. Seriously, the dogs are the smartest beings in this movie. The slow-moving mummy shouldn't have had the chance to kill anyone, and when he's slowly shuffling away with the unconscious woman, why didn't one of the 50 members of the riot squad spot them? She was wearing a white nightgown, and that thing was bright!
Anyway, I liked the dogs. Peanut and King were the real heroes of this strange story, but there was still one big question: where was the mummy's body? The woman mummy? They were saying her ghost was in the chick with the streaks in her hair, so where did the actual body go? I think there's one more Mummy movie in the list I have, so we'll see if there are dogs to save that one...
